castlemaine22 Posted January 15, 2022 Share Posted January 15, 2022 (edited) Hi all, I'm selling my Human Base Roxy B5 to make space for an incoming Maruszczyk, so I need to free up some funds! This is a lovely, resonant, and surprisingly versatile bass! The pickup switching and EQ is really powerful and it's pretty hard to get a bad sound. The low B is solid and strong. This is a pretty reluctant sale and will be sorely missed! - Swamp Ash Body - Maple neck with Rosewood fingerboard - 24 frets and 34" scale - Nut width 45 mm - Highly adjustable string spacing at the bridge (can go from just under 17mm to just over 19mm) - Delano Xtender pickup - Series/parallel/single coil switch - Active Glockenklang 3-Band Preamp (treble knob is tone control in passive mode) - zero-fret - Gotoh 350 res-o-lite tuners - 4kg (8.8 lbs) on my luggage scales with great balance seated or on a strap The condition is pretty good, there are some minor scratches on the pickguard and a little buckle rash on the back, but it's hard to see due to the finish. Comes with a padded Human Base gig bag. I'm looking for £750 inc. UK postage. Happy to drive up to an hour away from Leeds to meet a potential buyer. Let me know if you have any questions.

deepbass5 Posted January 15, 2022 Share Posted January 15, 2022 Great basses. I'm with Luke - the incoming may not match up ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would be surprised if it does. I’m almost tempted to buy it just so @castlemaine22 can buy it back when he realises… (we live a mile or so from each other, I have him to the east and Scott Devine to the west - I am very obviously one of the worst bass players locally!) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't need this, 😥 But have to say If Schack or Marleaux made this tomorrow, with this quality of wood and construction it would be £3000. Human basses are not as higher profile in UK but up there on quality. Also my favourite bridge of all time. 😍 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Until now I thought it would have cost more than those not-cheap basses.... surprised it's not!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
